摘要

In this study, a new dialdehyde was synthesized, followed by the successful preparation of a novel naphthalene-based oxa-aza receptor (L). The receptor was structurally characterized using a comprehensive suite of spectroscopic techniques, including UV–Vis, fluorescence, IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, DEPT, HSQC, and mass spectrometry. The chemosensor demonstrated high selectivity and sensitivity toward Zn²⁺ ions and the amino acid tyrosine. Fluorescence titration revealed a marked enhancement in emission intensity upon Zn²⁺ coordination, with a 1:1 binding stoichiometry confirmed by Job’s plot and an association constant (Ka) determined via the Benesi–Hildebrand method. The detection limit for Zn²⁺ was calculated to be 1.86 × 10⁻8 M. Additionally, the chemosensor exhibited strong affinity for tyrosine, achieving a detection limit of 2.8 × 10⁻8 M. Fluorescence reversibility studies highlighted the excellent regeneration capability of the chemosensor, underscoring its potential as a reusable probe for biological and environmental monitoring applications.
